Ultimate ADOM Early Access Update #8 (v.0.8.2) has been released!

Hear ye! Hear ye! Adventurers! Today we have released update #8 (0.8.2) for thy Ultimate ADOM Early Access!

New content:

In the depths of the Caverns of Chaos (around dungeon level 11), a new unhallowed place has opened up: The Halls of the Dead contain more monsters, more loot and a lot more dangers.
Hill Orcs and Gnolls join the fray. Dangerous and experienced warriors and scouts, they will make the best use of weapons lying around.
Rune plates can now be read, as can tombstones. Beware of what you might find though.

Graphics & UI:

Changes in level illumination will now shine a new light on certain levels.
You can now open the pause menu to save the game even when only playing with a mouse. Theres no need to reach towards the keyboard anymore, if that is the mode you prefer playing in.

Improvements:

Enemies and allies are much more persistent in chasing you across different dungeon levels. No more escaping up the stairs for some quick healing!
Weapon stats are no longer confused by the fact theyre equipped, on the ground or in the backpack. They will always display modified statistics now, making it much easier to evaluate the power of weapons you find.
Cannibalism is now taken into account. And a bad thing.
Characters now start out with more equipment to deal with the growing challenges.
Chaos goo once more advances slightly faster after it was slowed a lot in the previous patch. It resists balancing, as is only proper. Let us know if you think we nailed it now!
Each buffing spell can now only be cast, if it is not active on you.
Minor changes to the tutorial based on player feedback.
Monsters will no longer spawn just in front of you.

Bug Fixes:

Items on the ground will now finally show the correct PV and DV values.
Stairs and tunnels will no longer accidentally be destroyed by chaos goo.
Added more translations.
Weapon made from eternium now display statistics correctly.
Monster tooltips now take many more things into account when it comes to calculating likelihoods of hitting and damaging them.
Large hammers are now two-handed weapons as originally intended. Graft more arms if your Troll Chaosknight still wants to wield a shield!
Sometimes, a randomly spawned monster would cause a crash. This should no longer be the case.
Displacer beasts are now slightly less mysterious, and will display their stats in their tooltip.
Various minor bug fixes and stability enhancements, sometimes too smalle and overall too many to list them in detail.

The Story so Far

Evil has been vanquished. Peace has returned to Ancardia, and the peasants dare to dream once more of prosperity. Seven very different factions vie for control over the cataclysmic aftermath left behind by Andor Drakon’s defeat. And somewhere, deep down in an inhospitable cave, ChAoS is stirring again.

Pick up your blade, prepare your spells, check your daggers and ready your bow, for you are about to enter the ominous Caverns of Chaos. Choose your allegiance carefully, for you are nothing more than an expendable asset to the masters you choose.

Fight for a mercenary's glory and purse, for the justice of a folk in decline, for the light of purity or even for ChAoS itself. Every choice you make will determine how you approach the ever-changing Caverns of Chaos before you.

Features and Gameplay

Ultimate ADOM is a modern reimagining of traditional rogue-like dungeon-crawling.
Endless procedurally generated dungeons, countless monsters, items and a grand selection of very different skills allow for unlimited replayability
Intuitive control system will get rid of the need to memorize hundreds of keys. Though you can still do so, if you're into that. We are not judging.
Your chosen class, gender, race and allegiance will change the way the game challenges you. NPCs will react differently, new quests will be open to you and the world may change completely based on your performance.
A deep magic system with several unique schools of magic and dozens of spells per school. Flaming auras that damage nearby enemies, cold snaps that freeze rivers, animating the very walls of the dungeon to aid you - everything is possible.
A stealth system introduces a totally new way of playing the game: Instead of hacking or blasting all opposition to pieces you now can sneak past adversaries and avoid conflict by silently sneaking out of deadly situations.
Interactive items! Topple braziers to spill their burning oil on unsuspecting enemies. Push coffins to block passage ways, or smash them in hopes of loot. Lock doors, smash them, open them or turn them into wooden golems to (hopefully) serve your bidding.
Turn yourself into an abomination and graft your enemies’ body parts on yourself. They won’t need them any more, and what is better than wielding two swords? Two swords and an axe to harvest more bodyparts than ever before.
Choose or toggle between graphic mode and traditional ASCII at any time. Toggle between 3d mode and top down view, in ASCII or in the graphic mode. Toggle everything you wish, we probably have a game mode just for you.
“Play the way you want” – countless options of how to tackle the dungeons awaiting you. Befriend or tame creatures, slay monsters, delve deeper or keep exploring and expanding the cavern levels you have already found. Set traps and smash doors, or unlock them with the keys you found. Push coffins and other objects!
